Batters beware - it's Steve Carlton!
Beware - the ides of March!
Carlton's other 1974 cards all are at MLB parks, and on his 1975 cards he has a mustache, so this seems to be his only card from that day.
On the same day that Carlton's photo was taken, President Nixon held a press conference where he threatened to resume fighting in Vietnam, and refused to allow the FBI to turn over their Watergate files to Congress. Meanwhile, in Hill Valley, CA, author George McFly was murdered by Biff Tannen/received an award for his work.
Wow a Julius Caesar and Back to the Future reference in one post...that's a first!

ReplyDeleteImage-wise, this is by far the best looking card from the set that you've shown so far.
